I have been searching a 42/43 inch non 3D Plasma TV of Panasonic and Samsung make. These are the input information from my side:
1. My budget is around 38K.
2. HDD detection of HD movie is highly considerable for me since I have a 1 TB USB powered HDD with lot of HD/FHD movies of mkv format.
3. Looking for more warranty year.
Very few Plasma TVs are available in market of Bhopal city with approximate price which is listed below:
1. Panasonic 42X30D - Rs 33000/-
2. Panasonic 42X50D - Rs 43000/- (coming soon)
3. Samsung 43D450 - Rs 34000/-
4. Samsung 43E470 - Rs 36000/-
Right not I am deselecting the 43E470 since the TV does not detect HDD from USB.
Now I am listing some advantages and disadvantages of these three TVs:
1. 42X30D
Adv:
-Less cost
-3 years warranty (this warranty is good for Indian condition since lot of ppl face service problem especially more from Panasonic)
-SD card slot
-USB(2)
-Support HDD (but not confirmed that it will play mkv movie, not checked)
-Tough panel
Disadv:
-Bulky
-Old look
-More reflective glass
-Does not play flv format
2. 42X50D**
Adv:
-Light weight
-3 years warranty
-SD card slot
-USB(1)
-Support HDD, LAN port
-It plays all format (Again not sure abt HHD will play mkv movies, not checked)
-Decent look and design
-Brighter panel
Disadv:
- Costly (I am nor able to think that is this TV worthy for this price)
3. Samsung 43D450 - Rs 34000/-
Adv:
-Less pricy
-USB (1)+ support HDD (from several review I found that this will play all format with PD/HDD)
-Decent look and design
Disadv:
- one year warranty (more important for me)
-No LAN port (less important for me)
-Reflective glass
** X50 was not available but I have seen XT50. Salesman said that both TVs are same excluding 3D feature. I also observed that XT 50 is better than FHD UT30.
So my queries are:
1. Why should I not go for X30D. Since it plays almost all format + 3 year warranty (Tension free for 3 year). I will manage the low light in my room. even the reflection from D450 panel is almost same as X30.
2. Is it worthy to take X50 with Rs 43000/- and also this TV is not available in Bhopal. I will not wait further more.
3. I am leaning toward Samsung D450 but it has only 1 year of warranty.
So I am waiting for comments from users and experts. Kindly help me to find best TV for my price range.
